Well I'm ashamed of myself that it took me this long to get around to doing this :\

I have quite a few people who have helped me in this game. Whether it be taking me on quests and helping me kill NM's or just keeping me company while waste my life away on a video game^^'

first and foremost...

Anabelle- hands down my best friend in this game, without her I would have quit 2 months ago, not to mention I'd still be Rank 3 still lvl 45 no doubt and not even thinking of L1. She's my partner in everything lol, no matter what we do we make a good team... and since they moved Raise from 75 to 50 for PLD she can raise me when i die, which happens often (^.~) I'd be lost without you </bow>

Nikkichan- been my friend since the beginning, she scares me sometimes but it's all good :P I especially love it when she tracks me down and travels out of her way to /slap me ::sigh:: ^^ nikki is my pal, she keeps me on the right track most of the time whether she knows it or not.

Chihiru- while scrolling through this page I can't believe i never saw her name. Never hesitant to help. Helped me get NIN and a piece of AF.. I let her die doing af :'( I'll never forgive myself. GL on the wedding Chi ^^

Reiswind & Samanosuke- two exceptional people, took me under their wing early in the game and set me off on the right path. I wouldn't be the same without them.

I would also like to thank Asheron's Dream(lead by Reiswind, formerly Asheron's Call) for taking me in as a n00b and putting up with my relentless questions. I may have left the LS and you guys may /slap me everytime I come back, but I still love you XP

and last but not least!

My new LS JokersWild(led by Anabelle :)- been my home for the past few months, hard to believe it's been that long. It's a small LS but we're growing, and so far I have yet to meet anyone I don't like... except maybe bane, just kidding bane </smile> Also need to say hey to the other members Xii, Uber, Trye, Jonna, Metalmike, Typeo, Dary, Sarahjane, Death, Alendius and also Nikki ^^' of course can't leave out Anabelle </wave> if i'm forgetting someone I'm sorry >< but look us up we're cool people I swear

Eponine: Regardless of what others may think, Epo's a kind hearted, good person. Always wanting to help other people, always there for me, no matter what. I would have lost interest in the game long ago if it wasn't for him. Not to mention probably still be level 30. He's the best friend I could I ever ask for, hands down. I owe him more than I could ever express.

Niho: My friend since I pretty much started, we have an odd relationship of picking on each other and slapping, which always makes me cheer up. I can talk to Niho about anything, he always listens, even if he really doesn't want to. :P /slap Niho. ;)

Sofi/Danica: Sofi does a lot for me, a really great friend to have. She's always nice and caring. :)

Samanosuke and Reiswind: Samano and Reis are always there if you wanna have a fun conversation, 2 of the funnest, nicest people I've met in the game so far.

Essenar: Essenar's fun. Always polite to me as well, and another one of those I can talk to if I need to. Don't know him too much personally, but I enjoy helping him out 'cuz he helps out a ton as well.

Sencaro: Layed back, listens to anything you gotta say, always nice.

Alexender: He's really quiet, but once you get to know him, he's really awesome.

Shotie: She chased me down, apparently screencapping me for my armor at the time. We became friends after that, she takes good care of me, another one of those people who I can talk to about anything. :)

So many more, but this could get really long. ^^; So, I'll end it here. /wave^^

I would be no where in this game if it weren't for the outstanding individuals in my linkshell, TheForgotten. Never have a seen a group of people pull together so much when someone requires assistance. I'm extremely proud of these people and I wanted to recognize that here, since most know me as a comedian, and might not take what I had to say quite as seriously. So here it is. This list is no where near complete, so if you're not on here, don't be offended, I'm just stupid. I am an elf, after all. Int ain't two good.

This is my first time posting but I just want to point out some of the great ppl I have met along the way.

Niho: My partner in crime and best friend. Now if only I could get him to catch up to me so we can always play together. Hands down the funniest person I have ever met and a great player at whatever he does.

Asylum: Here is one of those amazing people who has helped me get as far as I have. I want to thank Asylum and his whole ls for all their help. To Generalho, Navigator, Kenshi, Minuno, and the rest^^.

Xii: Has there ever been a cuter tarutaru? This little guy is great and alot of fun to hang out with.

Metalmike + Typeonegative: My buddies from the start. They know how to keep this game fun.

Bane: Yay another adorable taru (even with the hobo hat). Beware he's amazing force as SMN and a very fun guy.

Lan: I love this little guy, he is so helpful and sweet.

Deathonthesnow: I just met him recently but he is so much fun, I had to mention him.

Orli: Me and Orli keep each other entertained throughout this game. He's a great person to talk to.

Aranarth: It's getting obvious to me that I have a preference for taru's. Here's another. I don't get to see him much anymore. I miss you Aranarth.

Trowab/Thrice: My best buddy for a long time and one of the reasons I'm still playing this highly addictive game.

Gannonsama: I saw you in here a bunch and you definitely deserve it^^

Apophus: One amazing thief and a very nice guy.

I know I am forgetting people and I'm so sorry if I left you out ; ; Thanks for reading my way too long post. Thanks to everyone on my LS JokersWild. I'm really glad you all are members of (even though I'm the leader)^^.

These people are all certified as extremely nice, helpful, respectful, and caring in my eyes. I haven't seen many of them recently but I'm sure they are blessing the lives of others as they have blessed mine! Sorry if I've missed anyone. Take care and good luck!

Efu- he is a 75RDM right now, leveling BST atm. I met him just outside the west gate of San d'oria when I needed help in going to Davoi for the PLD quest. He was just a random 71RDM that I saw and asked if he could help me out. He agreed to help me after he's done with the quest he's helping his friend out. Well, I waited then after awhile he sent me a tell, asking me if I was ready. I was surprised coz he was the first ever high level char got back to me when I added needed help. Well, I know for about 3 or more months now and we are saying "Hello^^" everytime we log. Thanks for the all the help buddy^^

Ebonic- one of my LS mates, helped me in limit 1 and a wacky LS (Cat)(Woman) at that. ;P

Nikki that reminds me, I should either finish that one piece of art I did, or do a new one...

Ironically now I'm wearing similar armor to the stuff you had that day when I chased you mashing my screencap button, and you've moved on to full RDM AF. ^_^ Nikki and I are a lot alike in a lot of ways, but I think she's much nicer and sweeter than I am.

(Stupid maintenance! Grr)

I think I should throw Taris on this list too. While I don't talk to her on a personal basis, she's the leader of the LS I'm in (omg Shotie brownnosing, say it ain't so! no, not really) and she goes out of her way to help folks. **** the woman even puts up with my weird tirades, which is always the mark of a truly patient understanding person there. LOL ;)

The people who i beleive are the greatest people i have ever met in this game are the following,

Shadowfury+Klaenya+Erlash: My three good friends who will stay by me in my loneliness in my LS. The only three i talk to non stop.

Toshiya+Asraa: Quite possibly one of my two favorite people in the world even when we don't talk ; and fight, i beleive they are my oldest and best friends here who have been by me forever.

Klaenya(again) for making me realize if all u care about is the people in this game, then u might as well just quit and go to chat rooms or play the SIMS, and also making me realize we wont be friends or together forever and you must live every day like the other person is dying tomorrow

Kmao - for calming me down after simurgh and just being here for me

Chaviv,Ahard,Hawkeyeryn - for wonderful conversations on the phone, even when Chaviv yells at me , or ahard saying he has to go to class but he is really getting drunk. And even the great phone XXX with Hawkeyeryn Oo.

Felinea - for always putting a smile on my face even when im sad or something bad happens^^

And every one else who is my casual friends but i did not go in depth with ; ;

1: Avara: deffinitly first and foremost, probably the best friend i've had on this game in these past 4/5 months one **** of a great whm, and she knows what she's doing, there is no whm id rather have watch my back than this girl right here... and nothing i wouldnt do for her, like i say, she knows what she's doing, and loves to help as well(plus i get free teleports, although i always pay her, cuz i want to)

also id like to agree with anabelle 2,3,4: metalmike & typeonegative have been 2 of my best friends on this game since i was a lvl 9 noob, no clue what i was doing, had pt in highlands, in fact i like to add anabelle as well, her and metalmike Pl'd my pt a bit, and metalmike took me to selbina, me and mike have been friends ever since then, and i met typeonegative also that night, he took me to windy at lvl 9 lol, he was 24 blm i think, it was those 2 that helped me as a noob, (when most cant stand noobs) and led me to be the type of player i am today at lvl 40warrior...thanks guys ^^

also, some of my closest friends and best players i've personally met

4,5: Drdeath & Migget: both good friends, good personality, willing to help without question, and good to pt with 6: gairbert: Rdm lvl 41, always willing to go the distance to help others 7: Avarissa: the first BRD i've ever liked pting with, that was at lvl 34 or so in garlaig citadel

8: bernwern: (recently left for remora) although no longer in sylph he has a great extent of knowledge of the game, 9: Chipper: (recently left for remora) good guy, good sense of humor, and knows his crafting lol, he fun guy to be around and do things with^^

sry to double post forgot to mention drdeath is a lvl 30ish blm, and migget is a lvl 30ish blm and 30ish whm not sure exact lvl

and 3 others id like to add, Finalcloud lvl 42drk, and his girl, caylenna 42drg, these 2 are fun to pt with, i've done a lot of pt's with them lately, and been enjoying everyone....and last but not least Blayden, he good guy and good whm....

This needs to be bumped. It fell to the second page, and we need positive stuff like this, as opposed to another thread that seems to keep going... *sigh*

Anyway, I want to add radubadu. I may be slightly off on his name, but recently, when the server randomly kicked people off on one problematic night, I got kicked. I was off for a half hour. I was mad because I was in a good party with the aforementioned person as leader.

Yet, when I logged back in, expecting to have nothing at all, he had a replacement high-level healer acting as a place-saver, with hopes I would be able to return. The WHM left and I got my spot back.

To do that is extremely nice, and I appreciated it very much. I just wish I knew the healer's name, too, so I could give him thanks.

Thought I should post on this thread at least once. There's sooooo many people to mention I'm sorry I forgot most of you....just whoever comes to mind.

Plow- What hasn't he helped me with...coffers, L2,L3, AF NMs,... Animal- All around great guy that will do anything to help his LS Dankdreamz-Willing to help anywhere he can and master chef ^^ Sodo-Comes half way across the world behind Garlage Cit gates so I can get R2.(and much more) I'm out of time...Tribalwolf, Mikhail, Quesse, Generalho, Nestea and co., Tsihpoca,....out of time I'll edit later missing soooo many. ^^

Kurio, I have to disagree with Catdaddy bein' on here. He's the guy who cussed a bunch of people in Garlaige Citadel out when HE trained Fallen Mages and Revenants and the like onto at least three parties there, with no warning he was doing so. When we asked him to warn us, he shot back a "*** you!" then ******* me out in tells.

HAHA, Catdaddy is hilarious =P

Shassy and I were farming/skill up/small xp in Rolanberry one day, and one of us, can't remember which one, threw a ranged attack and hit a goobue that he was near. After whining to us for a while about how it was apparently "his" even though he wasn't even engaged or facing the right direction at the time of the throw, he cursed and threatened us, stating he would "steal all of our kills" from now on. Then he noticed.... 2 thf, one with rng subjob for widescan..... hmm... Then he went away XD

Other than that, I've passed by him, and as we remember the encounter just laugh at each other without a word, he seems like he'd be a cool guy, we just had a bad run in I guess. Not saying he's a saint, and should be whitelisted, nor am I saying he's the devil like fooseball. Just seemed like a good place to jibba-jabba, that and it's almost 4am so I might be sleep-typing >.>

Gotta give a shout out to "DYNASTY LINKSHELL" Not just one or two of the members but ALL of them... 40 ppl or more strong! These ppl, no matter what, stop what they are doing to help fellow LS members with anything.

I /bow to all of you and am proud to be able to say I am part of your team.

helped my party out for rank 6 and this party was.. not the best especially with the leader it had.. bloody idiot he showed us the way and een helped us kill the shadow lord and without him we would not have done it took 5 **** hours >_<

Rockmanblues (41 RDM/??) - Nice guy and always cool to talk to. PL me and one of his friends yesterday, but that is not the reason I put him on here. I have know him for quite some time and have always had a good, friendly relationshipwith him. Great guy, again, and always willing to help out his friends or just random people as I saw yesterday.

____________________________

It's only after we lost everything do we begin to realize, how the fvck did i get into this ****!

Bigsam: 50+ BST/WHM who took an hour out of his time to assist me in acquiring the Magicked skull for the subjob quest and adamantly refused a gratuity while trying to give me several Ram Skins (which I refused).

i have to give props out the to the three jingles: missez mister and lil. They are pretty **** cool people and graet players. they are all three mages and im pld, so we have had a semi static pty so far. I just hope they hurry thier *** and catch back up to me so we can pty again!

1: Aganamenon= he was the first person i met, he was kind to me and helped me well i kinda helped him.

OMG >< I am sooooooooooooooooo sorry Vathram >< I thought you were someone else >< I am so embarrased *^^*; I hope you can forgive me :) And you are a great PLD. Now i know why you are on this whitelist ^^ you are really friendly :)

Many others who have been there to help me, be it a Raise, a power leveler, or simply joining my party to level with me. Also can't forget all of the people who I've also just been fortunate enough to have a good conversation with. Thank you all very much, you are the biggest reasons I keep coming back to play this game. -Hoss-

Bluevyper - He's one of the most helpful people I've ever met. >< He's really cool and I think he should be mentioned for it. He's great to talk to and he's funny ^^ Always been my favorite Spoony bard/Linkshell leader~

Darkkaos - Great Friend, ne! Very helpful. He took me places I'd thought I'd never go to. He helped me with a lot of missions and he is very fun to talk with. Also another great Linkshell Leader! (He took me to my first BCNM, lol!)

Predabeast - He helped me with my RDM AF1. He went out of his way to do just that. I appreciate it much. He's a nice guy ^^

Dagget - A fellow Red Mage! He's so helpful to me. He gives me tips as a red mage. ^^

Lets see, this is everyone who has helped me a ton, or are fun to talk to or had great parties together:

Becks - great parties mid levels ^^ Purrsia - help like no other Faramire - dates from waaaay back in VD days Kaherdin - dunno what could I do without her Khain - whooo L1 help Rodo - both good pt and help Naota - best PTies ever and help whenver he could Draven, Focritien, Sircurtis and all the other guys from better times.

there are a lot of nice ppl on this server. but there are also nice ppl who knows how to do their job better than anyone else. here my short list:

WAR: Rick the hardest working warrior i have seen. while war constantly got weakened throughout the patches, he is always among the first to seek for a new way to get out of the misery.

MNK: havent met yet.

WHM: Feiyung (healer) she saves your *** from death. fast. very fast. one of the few whms who deserve their noble tunic. Rin (melee) first whm/sam on this server. got bashed because no one wanted to admit that she did her job more than properly and participated in SCs at the same time. also manages to get her pt through the bcs as one of the first on the server. besides, she is a genius puller when she does melee jobs.

BLM: havent met yet.

RDM: Juda has gone through the dark ages of rdm, when there was neither refresh nor convert and fast cast was random effect. dispel is a part of his reflexes and while many rdms would cry out, he calmly refreshes 5 pt members. defeated maat the first time, shortly after limit 5 was released. he also realises quickly what you are up to during a fight even if you dont announce it. doesnt speak much, but his silent offer for help must be the reason why his LS is one of the few jp beta LSs which still exists.

THF: Anaberu has gone through the dark ages, when thfs didnt even had sneak attack. can control hate like anyone else. you think thfs are useless in bcs? she can show you that you think wrong. she was also one of the most honest persons i ever saw. sadly left FF a month ago.

PLD: havent met yet.

DRK: Gold has gone through the dark ages of drk. no stun, no drk only magic, 2 handed weapons crap, etc. while most drks were damage obsessed kids, he knew how to use his abilities. sadly left in march 2003.

BST: havent met yet.

BRD: i partied with one in boyahda when i was doing blm. it was as if she could read my mind. and not only mine. what a shame i cant remember her name...

RNG: too many damage obsessed kiddies. who think they are throwing away their money. they havent seen the days when arrows were only 12 a stack and costed almost 10x more than nowadays.

SAM: Pikey has gone through the dark ages of sam. katana ws too weak, no level 2 ws at lvl 65, etc. one of the first sams who got his job to 70 with sam/rng (although this combination is crap, sadly the katana was even crappier). controls the scs of his pt like noone else and changes his macros in no time to adapt to new situations during a fight. it requires a certain playerskill to keep up with him.

NIN: Felix can hold aggro almost as good as a pld. although not one of the nin pioneers, he loves his job like noone else. covers you if you are in trouble although a nin doesnt have that /ja.

1. Tander: One of my good friends both in-game and IRL. He'll do anything, and is the most insane black mage I've ever seen. The best time was when he was showing off while helping me kill the leeches for NIN quest - Firaga III and Aeroga III have never impressed me more.

2. Baralia: I owe this fellow a lot. He absolutely destroyed Cyranuce for me, and has been nothing but nice.

3. Rauros: Sorry we had to leave you in Jeuno during the NIN quest! Thank you for offering to help, though.

Elbonk: For getting me in and a many good talks. Tadaka and Hagakure: Both great guys and both very capable leaders. Thekingmob and Oleana/Cordonbleu: both great people and fun to pt with. Radek: totaly cool guy tho it rare when I see him. Avoklex: another great person and fun to talk with. Aknar: Not known long but so far a very solid player fun to be around. Spearl: new guy but greets everyone when he logs on cool in my book. Bethany, Jayenel, and Truffie: all 3 I only met briefly I hope to see more of as my first impression was good. All the other new guys by far the best LS I've been in.

I would like to thank the party that helped me get me get my Sub Job quest Items. I honestly wish I could remember the names but I can't(sorry) so if y'all post here, thanks for your help and you're def. on my good list.

Whoo - My best bud in real life, a complete nut case a great guy to be around. always helpful. Saves my *** so often it aint even funny, maybe hes obsessed with tail? (im still wondering how in the world i can repay him for all hes done for me)

Flcl - very nice guy helped me complete magicite in castle Oztroja when no one else would

Shenah - Wife of kelix extremly quiet but just as helpful also the queen of cooking

Keitaro - even tho im at war with him as hes San D'orian and im Bastokan (just for roleplay purposes of course ^^) helped me out so **** much by getting me that archers knife when i couldnt afford it and always fun to have around (one of these days itll be me and you monk VS monk) i think its him that drives me to get the gil i need for monk

Thanks Tohru, I had totally forgotten about Whoo. He took a big break from the game it seemed, and I'm really happy he's back. Whoo is a great guy. One of my first friends, and I still remember him talking to me during our first party, asking if he's doing the party leader thing right. He really cared.

I guess I'll add...

Shassa and Rauros! I love these two, and I'm always willing to do anything for you Shassa, you're a sweetheart.

I know I mentioned him before, but that big Galka PLD Elway deserves such a big hug. We needed his help to fight Ose, b/c the other party in LoO was a buncha babies. So Elway came and was our tank, even though he as subbed THF, he did a great job. Best PLD and I know, and an absolute awesome friend. He died too, and didn't complain once (and no jerkin drop either). Elway rocks so hard...

Zhakarov is a fellow BRD now, and a really nice fellow. I hope to get to hang out with you more. :) Maybe we can give a concert on the airship or something. I love to unequip instruments and try to get singing in~synch w/ another bard.

Eveningstar is a wonderful person to talk to, and so dang nice. Thanks for the R2 yesterday. ^^ I loves me some Eveningstar.

Jerryrobbins! I always have a blast with him. The first night of Halloween was so much fun! Running around Sandy with him and Lionage and Thetomatogalka, and my wonderful friend...

Cloey. Wow, we have so much fun together. I don't know what else to say, but Cloey is special, and I enjoy spending our days together. Maybe I can say more later.

Morwenna I just met, but dang is she cool! I'm so glad I went with Mugenakuma to help with AF that night, or I wouldn't have met her.

Valanthia - A great friend I've known since my last character and have gone through everything with. Always there in game and in RL even though she is many hundreds of miles away. Love ya Val!

Malafencence - (SP?) Mal is how I know her, lol. She is a great Mithra who invited me to my first party in the dunes. I was a level 11 Thf with no sub but she invited me anyway. She even left an XP party when she was in her late 30's to help me get my keys. Then she stayed on for 3 hrs with no drop. >< Thanks Mal! Right now she's leveling Whm (a job she hates) with my Pld because it was the only job she had close to mine.

Honqi - a Taru Drk that sent me a tell out of now where asking if I wanted to get a skull. I was upto level 20 with my old character and no sub because everytime we killed a Ghoul we didn't get the drop. He spent like an hour killing them while I cured from afar till we got hte drop. Truely a great Taru, Thanks!

All the great people on this Forum. You guys / girls are all great people, thanks!

I'm sure there are people I've forgot and I'm sorry if I have. I will update the list as I remember all the great people that have helped me in my adventures.

Kat, you goober! You were on the first one! I think it's a page back. XD You know I love you like a billion times over. :) I tell you every day! And I stayed 19999/20000 for 4 xp sessions for you. Yes Kat, you're on my whitelist. :p
